Destiny

?In the beautiful city C surrounded by mountains and rivers, in the special reception room of a private hospital in a small town, a thin and somewhat messy boy was looking at the paper in his hand, looking at a loss and helplessness. His trembling hands did not stop, but the people waiting for him also There was no further stalemate in this weird atmosphere.

"What? Makes sense to the terms on paper."

Too long black hair covered his left eye, and his pale face was bloodless. For this reason, the middle-aged man in formal attire did not continue to press the other party, but chose to say in a gentle tone: "Mr. Xia, I think this contract is right for you. It is beneficial and harmless, at least it is absolutely beneficial to your current situation."

Xia Chen was startled, tightly grasped the paper in his hand, and pressed his lips to express his dissatisfaction, but in the end he didn't make any complaints or rebuttals, because all of this was voluntary.

"Mr. Xia." Xia Chen stared at the pen handed over by the other party, and then stared at the four eye-catching four characters "Contract Marriage" on the paper, and his whole body became cold. In just three hours, his fate will be because of a piece of paper. However, changes have taken place, and all he can do is to take over the other party's pen and sign this shameful marriage.

Back to three hours ago——

Xia Chen, who got up early, went to the river to fetch water and prepared to go home for breakfast as usual. On the way home, he met an old man with white hair in a Chinese tunic suit and a cane. The old man asked him about the nearby routes. He answered and pointed in the direction, but Xia Chen, who was waiting to come home, was severely abused by his stepmother.

"Xia Chen, what do you eat? It takes so long to carry a bucket of water? I don't know if I'm already working in the fields at this time, do you want to starve me to death?" The tall and strong middle-aged woman scolded Xia Chen angrily , Xia Chen didn't answer, just lowered his head and carried water into the kitchen.

"Yo——Your wings have grown hard, and you know how to resist without saying a word. If I don't give you a good lesson today, you still don't know who my old lady is?" Xia Chen waved it away.

Xia Chen didn't think about rebutting, because he knew that this woman was the so-called stepmother's mind, and if he was in a hurry, he could just give him two sticks, so as not to cause trouble, but Xia Yang, who was already a junior high school student, was also Xia Chen's younger brother, and he wouldn't tolerate him like this. The stepmother built up momentum, stepped forward and grabbed the long stick that was waving towards her brother, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you hit my brother, you have hands and feet and can't do it by yourself." The long stick was thrown away so hard that Fan Yimei almost staggered and fell A fall, and this loss instantly angered Fan Yimei.

"Well, you Xia Yang, how dare you attack your mother. If I don't hit you today, I won't be called Fan Yimei." Fan Yimei raised the long stick in her hand and waved it towards Xia Yang. Xia Yang avoided it in a hurry. Playing with Fan Yimei, and even made a move of resistance.

When he realized something was wrong, Xia Chen immediately stepped forward to stop Xia Yang who was about to get angry, "Xiao Yang, don't be impulsive, you know Xia Xi still wants to..."

"Brother, we can't be so disadvantaged. Why does she beat us? We were not born by her. It's just tuition and medical expenses. At worst, I don't study and go out to make money."

"Xia Yang—don't say such things. Do you think it's easy to make money if you don't study to make money?" Xia Chen seldom gets angry. In this matter, Xia Chen would never allow Xia Yang to have second thoughts.

"Hmph, one and two are nothing, and I don't have any sense of respecting elders. Xia Yang, why don't you shout, don't you still want to attack me?" Stick, turned around and walked into the house towards the back room. Xia Chen and Xia Yang knew best who lived in that room.

"Xia Xi..."

"Xia Xi, how long are you going to sleep with me? I'm cleaning you up one by one today." Fan Yimei grabbed the feather duster on the cabinet and beat Xia Xi.

Xia Xi had a bit of a cold the night before, so she was not feeling well, and because of her congenital heart disease, she couldn't get excited. Fan Yimei's beating up today was definitely not a simple beating.

After being beaten by Fan Yimei several times with a feather duster, Xia Xi immediately jumped out of bed to play tricks with Fan Yimei, enduring her arm and uncomfortable body. At the same time, Xia Chen and Xia Yang rushed in to stop Fan Yimei from hitting her. beat.

"If you hit my sister again, believe it or not..."

"Believe it or not? Hit me, hit me if you can, hit me..." Fan Yimei's provocation stimulated Xia Yang's nerves. Xia Yang, who was more irritable and agitated, didn't hold his breath, and was stopped by Xia Chen when he raised his clenched fist and swung it down. "Think about Xia Xi's illness."

Xia Yang's anger calmed down because of Xia Chen's words, his finger bones were creaking, and his angry eyes hadn't disappeared yet, but his hand holding the feather duster loosened, and the loose feather duster gave Fan Yimei a tool to vent, ruthlessly With a wave of his hand, the first slap on Xia Yang's body was blocked by Xia Chen.

"Brother, I won't let you stop me. I'm the one who did something wrong. If you have the ability, come at me. Don't vent on my brother."

"To shut up--"

"None of you can escape today." Fan Yimei continued to wave the feather duster in her hand, the pain in her arms and back seemed to be a habit, Xia Chen just frowned, turned her head to look at Xia Yang and signaled to take Xia Xi out.

Xia Xi seemed to understand, she yelled with tears: "Brother, I won't go out, what's the matter, let's take care of it together, brother..."

Xia Xi's cries aroused Fan Yimei's anger even more. There was burning pain in her body. Xia Chen couldn't help frowning. Xia Yang noticed Xia Chen's painful frown. In an instant, Xia Yang dragged the beaten Xia Chen into the garden.

"Damn it, if you dare to escape, I will beat you hard today. If you dare to resist my mother, I will beat you to death." Fan Yimei changed the long stick she was holding and swung it towards Xia Yang. Xia Xi stood closest to Fan Yimei, and the long, thumb-sized stick fell hard on Xia Xi's back.

"pain……"

"Xia Xi——" Xia Yang ran up to protect Xia Xi first, and then Xia Chen stood in front of his younger siblings and looked straight at Fan Yimei who stopped indifferently, "If you have something to do to me, don't trouble my younger siblings."

"Hmph, don't think you're a good thing, bastard, why don't you die, no, I'm going to beat you to death today." Fan Yimei resented thinking of all these years of suffering, and fell on Xia Chen with a long stick. No matter how patiently he could bear it, Xia Chen's body standing upright was also beaten to the ground half kneeling.

"Stop beating, I was wrong, I won't sleep any more, please don't be beating." Xia Xi cried and begged for mercy, but it didn't work, it's better to say that Xia Xi's crying face gave Fan Yimei a dose of excitement The strength in my hand became more intense, "I'll let you skin, beat you to death, every bitch bitch, it's all because of you, I lost everything, go to death."

"Boom, bang, bang..."

Xia Yang wanted to resist all the time, but was stopped by Xia Chen who kept holding her body. Xia Xi, who was crying and begging for mercy, still didn't stop. The situation of being too excited caused Xia Xi to hold her chest and yell in discomfort. Xia Yang immediately stepped forward to support Xia Xi, "Xia Xi—don't get excited, Xia Xi, relax."

"Xia Xi, Xia Xi, how are you? Xia Xi..." Xia Chen was so worried that she couldn't control the pain in her body and Fan Yimei's continuous beating. Reluctantly saying that I'm fine, I feel so distressed that I wish I could crush my palms with my fingers.

"If you want to die, let me die, Xia Chen, what kind of eyes do you have, you want to beat me up, kill me, you bastard is not capable, so don't show me this look." Fan Yimei raised the long stick in her hand and pointed at me. This time, Xia Yang stood in front of Xia Chen and accepted the blow of the stick, but the stick did not fall in the end, and it stopped firmly in the hands of a strong person in midair.

All eyes were on the tall man in the dark suit and sunglasses. Fan Yimei tried to take the stick away but couldn't do it at all. In the end, she could only stare at the man angrily and curse, "Damn, who are you?" How dare you meddle in my old lady's affairs."

"Being a man can't be so extreme, there will be retribution."

Xia Chen raised his head and saw the old man he met not long ago asking for directions. When his eyes met the old man's, he thought of the word "powerful", and then he only heard the old man's words in his mind, "Old Chen, first Send them to the hospital and inform the lawyer and the police that domestic violence will never be tolerated." The moment the crutches landed, Xia Chen realized that this old man was not just ordinary. ?
